Design & features
Runzhijia Kangxi Dictionary is a cleaned-up, refined version of the Kangxi Dictionary typeface by the brand Runzhijia: weathering is repaired, strokes are slightly thickened and softened with a touch of calligraphy, and the carved-stone feel is toned down for a more dignified look.
It has two styles—Regular for titles and short poster text, and a slim Light-like cut for supporting or body text. The Kangxi Dictionary is a Traditional font, so Simplified text must be converted to Traditional first.
Best uses
Stylistically, Runzhijia Kangxi Dictionary works well for refreshing heritage brands, tea-house and restaurant menus and book and magazine pages. Serif horizontals are thin, so on screen keep it at 14px or larger; it really shines in print.
